I found a typo in the installer script and one file to remove in /etc. Consequently it fails to make the new user. It's all because of the move from live-initramfs to live-boot. Will upload a fixed ISO later. In the meantime, here is a quick fix (do this in the live session before running the installer): In a konsole (one line at a time): sudo su sed -i 's/1002/1000/'g /usr/bin/remastersys-installer rm -f /etc/live.conf You could copy this text to a pen drive to quickly transfer it to a live session. I tested the fix on a new install and it worked. The installer uses grub-gfxboot (grug-legacy) not grub2. It would be better first-off to install grub to partition and chainload it from your current main OS. You can "upgrade" to grub2 post-install if wanted. Re: network configs: sudo ceni
